A revolução africana

uma teoria do Imperialismo em Frantz Fanon

Abstract

This article moves towards interpreting, in the light of some works by psychiatrist and political philosopher Frantz Fanon, one of the canons of the so-called decolonial perspective, his theory of Imperialism, linked to the idea of ​​an African revolution. With his revolutionary intellectual perspective, unprecedented if taken into account with the currents that were most manifested until then both in Algeria and in France, he managed to bring up the question of exploitation and the colonized and resolved it: total liberation of the national territory from the immediate struggle for the absolute (non-verbal, but concrete) death of colonialism. Understanding colonialism as a logical, coherent and rational set of war and torture, and not as an "error of course" or an unwanted "mutation" of the Western international system, as long as there is a public opinion that disapproves of it, he believes in Algeria as vanguard of the African Revolution.
